A 16 minute video of Midway's arcade game factory from 1982, Ms Pacman machines being assembled by blue collar factory workers, when the USA still had factories... when an honest man could make an honest wage to make payments on his new Trans-Am, and buy six-packs of Pabst Blue Ribbon for only $2.45. Doesn't it make you want to hear a Bruce Springsteen song?
